Looking in the mud for bushfire of the past OK. But…all this is about the very top end, including the links to papers. I’m inclined to think referencing the Ash Wednesday/Black Summer/Black Saturday fires at the beginning of the article is not really on track. All of those fires were thousands of km away from what is under study, and in quite a different sort of vegetation.

Towards the bottom of the article:
This is, of course, just one part of Australia. But other analyses from around the country tell a similar story.

Here is my comment in Chat earlier about that piece. I probably should have threaded it.

Those links, as I mentioned, are also about Top End research.
